Plum mead with the old dessert plum variety Mallard. Mallard is a very flavorful red skinned plum variety. Fermented cold and slow to maintain every nuance and natural acidity of the plum. In the finished mead you can almost taste the juicy but firm nuances from the red plum skin.
Expect a firm minerally acidity up front. Quickly followed by a long-lasting and sweet flavor of plump, juicy plums.

2021: Honey variety: Wildflower. Plum variety: Mallard (Sauherad). Locally sourced honey and fruit.

Bottle sample at a Yana tasting at Max's place. Deep red-purple. Lots of jammy berries, honey, sweet and sourish, full-bodied, rounded. Really great.

6/8/2023. Bottle shared by danlo, cheers Ed! Pours clear pale golden with no head. Aroma is sweet, honey, plummy, boozy, floral, touch of petroleum jelly. Sweet with a mellow bitterness. Full bodied, sticky, no carbonation. Some alcohol warmth to finish. Enjoyed this.

Superficial sample from Gunnfryds ticker party. Clear golden body with no head. Aroma has mild honey and flowers. Taste is sweet – very sweet honey with a floral touch. Balanced body with a sweet aftertaste. Very sweet and rather one-dimensional.

Bottle. A faintly hazy pale golden colored mead, lightly oily. Honey, flower notes, plum hints and a cardboardy hint. It's full-bodied, warming and oily, sticky sweet, with a fruity, flowery flavor. Some dried fruits, prunes, plums and a vague hint of glue. Sure not my favorite from Marlobobo, although there's some interesting things going on. 230422

Sweet, sticky, fruity. Sweet plums, says red but would have believed yellow, honey. Some sourness, a bit vinous, nice but not at the same level as their others.

Slightly cloudy pale yellow. Big sweet smell, some honey, quite a lot of sticky overripe plum. Sticky, boozy, not thick. Taste is pretty odd, very sweet with still lots of honey, some plum. Combination doesn't really work for me. Very hot alcohol.
